Fast answerA calculated rent measure that reflects selected incentives or costs over a stated period and methodology.
Why it matters
Different calculations may include different items, so two effective-rent figures may not be comparable.
What to request
Ask for the formula, cash flows, timing, discount rate, area basis and included costs.
Planning example
Label every effective-rent result with its assumptions. The example organizes arithmetic or evidence only; the transaction documents and facts determine the result.

Evidence boundary: office availability and quoted economics change. Confirm current premises, authority, area, costs, permitted use and documents for the specific transaction. Read the methodology.
